We're excited to introduce a new feature that allows you to set custom dates directly from the file context menu. Simply right-click on any file to access the context menu, and you'll find the date option at the bottom (indicated by a calendar icon).

When you select this option, a date picker dialog appears where you can enter your preferred date in the format D/M/YYYY H:ma (for example, 29/4/2025 1:00am). Once set, these custom dates can be used for sorting your files with the "By Datetime ASC" and "DESC" options.

This enhancement is particularly useful for blog authors who want to arrange their posts in a specific chronological sequence, regardless of when they were actually created. You can now create content in any order and still maintain perfect control over how it appears in your timeline.

We hope this small but powerful addition helps streamline your content management workflow!
